Marple: They Do It with Mirrors (2009)
If this is the only thing on - g0 ahead and watch...
I LOVE Miss. Marple, but Ms. McKenzie is just not her and I would love to know why they cast her in the role. Geraldine McEwan was the best Miss Marple EVER! As for the story, the plot was weak, the lines were bad, and the stylization of it was downright despicable.
The actors were not good. I'd say they were bad actors, but having seen Sean Hughes in other things - I know he is not and am, therefore, willing to give the others the benefit of the doubt.
I expected better from Mr. Wilson - he has directed some GREAT shows in the past, but he fell flat on this one. Maybe, Mr. Rutman was not the wisest choice to write the screenplay.
Bones (2005)
Very Bad...Pathetic waste of time...
I waited for weeks to watch the series premiere and what a disappointment! Anyone who is thinking of watching the show - DON'T waste your time.
The books are superb, so I thought the show would be as well, but the whole thing was screwed up!
They couldn't find a good actress to play Tempe, so they settled for a hack.
They didn't want the french connection, so they moved her to Washington, DC - Montreal is far superior for the story lines.
Booth, as much as I like David, is a flat, one-dimensional character.
The storyline - an idiot could tell you who was guilty after the first five minutes.
The morgue motley crew was attempting to be the "Crossing Jordon" team, but ended up scoring in the negative in character and wit.
Frankly, I've taught second graders who could think up better stories and characters.
I want that hour of my life back! I should have been watching "Supernatural on the WB."
